Getting to know the "Me" who loves makeup, fashion & any things in between

Hi! Guys, I know, I know... been MIA (way too long) but here I am, starting blogging again... and to start with is one of my favorite concealer...

Disclaimer : I paid this product and I am not affiliated with this company.

Product Name : Milani Secret Cover Concealer Cream

What it is : A creamy concealer in a small pot perfect for concealing blemishes and dark under eye circles

Packaging/Quantity : 7.7g

Price : US $ 5.99 (milanicosmetics.com)

Where to buy : Amazon, Ebay, crushcosmetics.com, milanicosmetics.com, ulta stores, basically almost all drusgstores malls in the US. Sad to say, not available in the Philippines though... Grrr.... it sucks right when products like these are not available here. >: /

Color/Shades : Mine is in Warm beige (though on summer days its perfect for my skin tone and a good corrector for me since it's kind of a peachy warm color but too dark when on colder seasons linke in "ber" months) Available in 8 shades.

Fragrance : A light rosy concealer smell. ( If that makes sense to you LOL )

Comparison : A lot of bloggers say it's a close comparable to MAC finish concealer but the difference is that MAC have SPF 35 while Milani don't (wish they would make one with SPFs more favorable :) )

Texture : Smooth but a little thick.

Result after I applied : A natural finish but be aware that this cream is very thick so do apply little by little. I prefer applying this concealer using my ring finger because it blends more to your skin rather than applying it with a concealer brush or any fluffy brush but that's my opinion. You can apply this whichever you prefer. :)

Would I repurchase it? Yes, definitely!

Likes :

· A covers well

· A littler goes a long, long way.

· Perfect finish

· Blends well (for me using just my ring finger in a dabbing motion).

· Has a mild rosy scent.

Dislikes :

· Not available here in the Philippines

· A thick cream that when you over doing it, it sinks to your lines.

· The container has a big mouth where it's perfect when you're about to hit the pan

. A few days after opening the product, it tends to dry so a tip if you are using this product do placed it upside down on your vanity table.
